Axial map analysis of Space Syntax is a well known technique on the interpretation of configurational space structure and has been successful to understand the relationships between space structures. This paper deals with the limitations of axial lines as a unit space to measure it's social logic due to the fact that axial lines are the fewest longest lines of visibility. This paper attempts to refine an axial space into more detailed unit to identify lines in a real-world manner so that the measured unit of a space can be more precisely correspond to its functions in a the world. Axial lines are split into a segment based on intersection points and can form a graph to get a relationship between them, which is called a 'segment line' and results in a 'segment map'. With comparing measurements of spaces in axial line map and segment map in a case of simulation, this segmentation method of space analysis will find a way to improvement of the space syntax techniques.
